Raymond Acevedo, is a Puerto Rican rock music singer. Raymond became a part of the well-known Puerto Rican boy band Menudo in 1985, joining Ricky Martin, Robby Rosa, Charlie Rivera and Roy Rossello. Raymond joined Menudo towards the end of what is generally considered the band's "golden era", when the group was undergoing a change that eventually resulted in Menudo producing songs that were arguably edgier than their previous hits. In 1985, Raymond sang lead on the Menudo hit "En San Juan me Enamore". He also performed the lead vocal for "It's You and Me All The Way," which became a massive international hit. Raymond, along with his fellow Menudo members, starred in the Argentinian soap opera, "Por Siempre Amigos," providing him with a background in acting as well. The show aired in 1987 and ran for 100 episodes. It was a mix of drama, romance and humor. After becoming a teen idol in Puerto Rico and the rest of Latin America, and a favorite among Menudo fans, Raymond's departure from the group was followed closely by Puerto Rican media. He left the band on August 2, 1988, a few months short of his seventeenth birthday. [More at Wikipedia]
